M UCILAGE-BOTTLE.

SPECIFICATION formng part of Letters Patent No. 564348, dated July 21, 1896.

Application filed February 12, 1896 Serial No. 578,978. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, WILLIAM PERCY TUR- NER, a citizen of the United States, and a resident of New York, in the county of New York and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Mucilage-Bottles, of which the following is a specification, reference being had to the accompanying drawing, forming a part thereof, in which similar letters of reference indicate corresponding parts.

This invention relates to mucilage-bottles and the object thereof is to provide an improved device of this class the body portion of which may be of any desired form, and which is provided with a neck having a removable neck attachment of novel construction and operation, and through which the mucilage-brush is adapted to be passed.

The invention is fully disclosed in the following specification, of which the accompanying drawing forms a part, said drawing being a central vertical section of my improved mucilage-bottle, and the neck attachment therefor.

In the practice of my invention I provide a mucilage bottle or receptacle A, the body portion of which may be of any desired form and composed of any desired material, and said bottle is provided with a neck B, which is substantially of the usual form; and I also provide a removable funnel-shaped attachment D, the upper end of which is bell or funnel shaped in form, and the lower end of which is provided with a depending tube d, which is slightly contracted inwardly and downwardly,and which projects into the body portion or reservoir of the bottle or receptacle.

The neck attachment is provided at the lower end of the funnel-shaped portion thereof with an annular flange or rim Gr, which is secured thereon or connected therewith in any desired manner, and said annular fiange or rim G is provided with a depending rim g,

which is adapted to inclose the upper end of the neck B, and at a predetermined distance below the annular fiange Gr is another annular fiange H, which is also Secured to or formed on the tubular extension of the at tachment and between the fianges or rims G and H is placed a packing-ring K of cork or similar material.

It will be understood that this attachment is adapted to accompany each bottle, and that Originally the neck B may be closed by an ordinary plug or stopper, and when it is desired to use the bottle of mucilage the plug or stopper is removed and my attachment is placed therein. The brush is inserted through the funnel-shaped attachment and into the mucilage in the usual manner, and in withdrawing the same the surplus mucilage may be wiped therefrom on the lower end of the tubular extension of the attachment, and said attachment may be removed and cleaned whenever desired.

Having fully described my invention, I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent- 1. An attachment for the neck of mucilagebottles and similar receptacles, consisting of a funnel-shaped device having a tubular eX- tension, a fiange formed thereon, or secured thereto, and provided with a depending rim which is adapted to inclose the upper end of the neck of the bottle, and another fiange secured thereto or formed thereon, and a packing-ring which is placed between said flanges, substantially as shown and described.

2. The combination with a mucilage bottle, or receptacle, having a neck of the usual form, of a removable plug or attachment which is funnel-shaped in form, and provided with a tubular extension which is adapted to project into the bottle or receptacle, said tubular extension being provided with two annular fianges or rims which are secured thereto or formed thereon, and the upper one of which is provided with a depending rim which is adapted to inclose the upper end of the neck of the bottle, substantially as shown and described.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my invention Ihave signed myname, in presence of the subscribing witnesses, this 11th day of February, 1896.

WILLI AM PERCY TURNER.
